Welcome to Tricia Buttkus, LCSW. I believe one of the most courageous steps in taking care of yourself is to reach out for guidance or mentoring with a therapist, with the goal of together striving to find your voice, your sense of empowerment.

Life is all about change. We all experience major transitions at various times in our life – new jobs and careers, new relationships, the birth of a child, parenting challenges with children and teens. With the high-tech society we live in today, our challenges are even greater, and our fight for our children needs to be proactive. Additional transitions we encounter while trying to maintain our value and importance include family illnesses, divorce, job loss, or retirement and the death of a loved one.

My role as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker is very interactive. I don't just simply "sit Back and listen," but instead work collaboratively as a coach, giving you honest, empathetic, and non-judgemental advice on new behaviors to practice.

I practice psychotherapy eclectically, meaning I draw on numerous psychotherapeutic techniques. Just like there is more than one way to reach a destination, there is also more than one way to find happiness. I consider myself to be an out of the box thinker/therapist. This means I value and understand the uniqueness of each one of my clients. With thoughtful questioning, I am able to determine what makes you, YOU. Discovering the special intricate qualities that sets you apart from others, and the various and unique ways you think, feel, behave and interact within your world and your relationships. If I didn't approach therapy this way, and instead limited myself to one type of treatment or modality, I would in essence be limiting your opportunity for growth.

If you feel stuck, worried, anxious, depressed; if you, your loved one, or your child's life no longer seems meaningful or things just don't flow as easily as they once did; if you're having difficulty changing an area of your life, you needn't be alone. I will walk alongside you, together we will work through your present difficulties and help you or your loved one determine a personal life path of meaning and fulfillment. I will assist you or your child in creating the changes necessary to achieve a happier more satisfying life.

Reach out and connect with me at therapywithtricia@gmail.com or call me anytime at (714) 974-1621, to ask any questions, have a free phone consultation, or set up an initial office consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.
